Batch mode conversion is available for all interfaces. To use batch mode conversion you must run a .tcl file in batch mode using hmbatch.exe.

When running this .tcl file in batch mode, use the following commands in Windows and Linux:

<altair_home>/hm/bin/<platform>/hmbatch.exe -tcl </home/user/my_script.tcl>

## Bath mode conversion for Abaqus to Optistruct

## Note - Please keep the source model and script in the same folder

## Please replace XXXXX with name of the source deck and the destination files.
